Package: viewcvs Version: 0.9.2+cvs.1.0.dev.2004.07.28-4 I tried to install viewcvs on a fresh sarge. However, the configuration is not stored in /etc/viewcvs/*.conf, I believe some default is being used instead.
A subsequent dpkg-reconfigure viewcvs does able to make the actual changes both to /etc/viewcvs/* as well as the dpkg memorized configure. Oddly enough, even the second dpkg-reconfigure show default values(on start up), not the value I entered during installation so it was lost there, thus cannot propagate to /etc/viewcvs/ I have redo it several times with "apt-get remove --purge" to confirm the behaviour. Another minor problem(at least with apache2). viewcvs put a config(Alias /doc/viewcvs) under /etc/conf.d which is included before the sites-enabled/ include. But in the default site configuration, /doc/ is aliased again so all reference to /doc/viewcvs becomes broken links(like the power by viewcvs icon). Yet another minor issue. docroot is commented out in viewcvs.conf by default this result in the CVS help link using /*docroot*/ which looks for /etc/doc/viewcvs/* thus again a broken link. I need to uncomment docroot=/viewcvs and change the Alias under conf.d/viewcvs to access the help. The "powered by" icon unfortunately is still broken as it seems to be hard coded to /doc/viewcvs/ BTW, the help in debconf about alias is different from the default conf.d/viewcvs used. One use /doc/viewcvs(in conf.d/viewcvs), the help talks about /viewcvs. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
